U.S. launches a sixth straight night of strikes as Iran hits back across the region

Southern Iran

CENTCOM said it carried out a sixth consecutive night of strikes on Iran, with Iranian media reporting hits on a bridge at Bandar-e Khamir, where seven people were killed, and on Qeshm, Bushehr and Ahvaz. Iran's army and the IRGC claimed attacks on U.S. sites in Kuwait, Bahrain, Qatar, Oman and Jordan and on the al-Tanf base in Syria, which Syria denied.

Why it matters

Reuters reported that Iran had asked Yemen's Houthis to be ready to close the Red Sea route if the U.S. hit its power plants, raising the risk of a second chokepoint being shut.
